Hidalgo authorities pursue criminal charges against congresswoman Alhely Medina Hernández, alleging child abuse.
In the small town of Zimapán, Mexico, a shocking case of sexual abuse and aggravated rape against two minors has been making headlines. The accused is Alhely Medina Hernández, a Morena congresswoman, who has been stripped of her political rights and removed from party roles following the case.
The Hidalgo Congress has approved Medina's request for an indefinite leave from her legislative duties, as the investigation continues. The Procuraduría General de Justicia del Estado de Hidalgo (PGJEH) and the Federal Prosecutor's Office for Crimes of Violence Against Women and Human Trafficking (Fevimtra) are conducting investigations into the case.
Judge Jesús Anim Ope Islas ordered preventive detention for Arturo Williams Trejo and Bertha Eva Medina, two accomplices of Alhely Medina Hernández, during a court hearing. Medina, however, was granted provisional freedom under strict conditions.
The victims, nieces of Williams and Bertha, have identified all three adults as perpetrators. Medical evidence presented by the victims' legal team includes biopsies and tests confirming physical trauma and a positive result for Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in one child.
Two additional suspects remain fugitives, with Interpol Red Notices issued for their arrest. The victims and their mother are currently under federal protection in a secure shelter.
The case has sparked national outrage, with Morena's National Commission of Honor and Justice taking swift action. However, as of July 9th, 2025, the status of the case remains unclear, with no recent updates available in the current search results.
For the most accurate and updated details, it may be necessary to consult specialized local news outlets or official sources in Mexico.
